Incident Description:
Everyone locks their bikes to our wrought iron fence outside of our condo building - I walked outside this morning to see that the fence had been cut, and the bike was gone. I'm assuming they cut the fence and just raised the lock right through the broken part. There were no other bikes stolen that I could see (I have another bike out there with a U-Lock, and it was still there). I think it was probably chosen because of the bright yellow color, it's very unique.
